Welcome to Our Hotel Blog

Haley’s Motel is a go-to for a romantic getaway for two, but it is also a perfectly charming destination for a family vacation. We offer quite a few unit options that are appropriate for families, including our gorgeous and newly renovated Gumbo Limbo House.

The Gumbo Limbo House — named for the old Florida Gumbo-Limbo trees that frame the property — is a two bedroom, two bathroom duplex that can fit up to six people.

Both of the central air-conditioned units feature a master bedroom (with a king size bed), a second bedroom with two double beds, and fold out sofa bed in the living room. Amenities like free toiletries, 55’’ flat-screen TVs with cable channels, Wi-Fi Internet access, and tons of storage space make this a true home away from home and ensure that your family is comfortable and has everything they need.

If that wasn’t enough, the Gumbo Limbo House’s renovations, which were completed in January this year, include fully remodeled kitchens with granite countertops, a new stove, and a new refrigerator, as well as separate private patios (located both in the front and back of the property), gas grills, a pool, and Jacuzzi. Cooking and poolside lounging made easy!

The house is located right across the street from Haley’s Motel, so it’s extremely private, and guests have full access to the white sandy beach and all of the motel’s amenities and services, from the sundeck to complimentary beach carts and chairs.

For a relaxing, tropical, old Florida-style family vacation, be sure to book your stay with us here at Haley’s Motel. Our Anna Maria Island hotel is conveniently located close to the airport, as well as nearby local attractions like the delightful Anna Maria City Pier, the picturesque Coquina Baywalk, and downtown Bradenton — a hub for family-friendly activities like water spots, wildlife preserves, and more.
